The question is, what should the support do? Code completion? I think this is already implemened, because of the structure how netbeans handle HTML5 proejcts with external scripts. Maybe a designer with controls? I don't know but what you can test is the Yeoman plugin to install the generator via netbeans: https://github.com/GeertjanWielenga/YoNetBeans

First of all it's Ionic commands that override Cordovas commands.
Here you can find the list https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-cli
Second and also very important is directives (as html attributes) support with documentation.
http://ionicframework.com/docs/api/
And third could be documentation in cc and cc itself for JS.
Since the Ionic already has version 1 RC, I think it's API is already well established, so it's time to begin support.

Ionic elements and attributes
Simple workaround to get code completion for Ionic. Place customs.json file into nbproject folder which is located in your project folder.
